About Death, Taxes, & Other Certainties: A Funny Fantasy of Skeletons, Zombies, and Corrupt Accounting (The Adventures of Dirk & Felix)

A Laugh-Out-Loud Fantasy Adventure for Fans of Terry Pratchett, Vox Machina & Good Omens The dead don’t pay taxes, but in Riverton, they’re collecting with interest. When self-proclaimed hero Dirk Haywood and his rhyme-obsessed cousin Felix stumble into the quiet town of Riverton with their half-wolf sidekick, they expect a night of ale, bad poetry, and maybe a tavern brawl. Instead, they find a town preparing for a wedding, and barricading itself against an undead invasion. After swatting a few skeletons in the square, Dirk cuts a deal with the desperate mayor: stop whatever’s raising the dead before the ceremony begins. Easy coin, right? Wrong. When Riverton’s corrupt half-orc tax collector starts sending zombie debt collectors after them, things go from bad to bone-rattling. Between skeletal wildlife, cursed paperwork, and a persistent corpse with a grudge, Dirk and Felix must save the town, the wedding, and possibly their bar tab. If they can survive Wolf Boy’s territorial instincts and Dirk’s questionable flirting, that is. Full of dark comedy, ridiculous heroics, and chaotic undead mayhem, this fantasy romp will leave you laughing long after the last zombie falls apart. Perfect for readers who love: Comic fantasy adventures like Discworld, The Legend of Vox Machina, and Good Omens Humorous sword & sorcery with undead antics and absurd quests Fast-paced fantasy tales packed with misfits, monsters, and mayhem Get ready to laugh, cringe, and cheer for the dumbest heroes to ever swing a sword. Buy now and join Dirk, Felix, and Wolf Boy in their most disastrous and hilarious, quest yet!
